SMITHFIELD, NC, April 13, 2021-

Berry Global, the Fortune 500 global maker and marketer of nonwoven fabrics and plastic packaging products, will invest more than $70 million to expand its Benson manufacturing plant. The company will add approximately 60 jobs to its existing 217-person Johnston County workforce. County Commissioners joined the Town of Benson’s Board of Commissioners in a joint meeting earlier today to approve performance based incentives as part of Berry Global’s national search for a location to house its expansion.

“Congratulations to this longtime corporate resident on the success that has led to this major expansion,” said Chad M. Stewart, chairman of the Johnston County Board of Commissioners.  “Berry Global has been in the trenches in the fight against COVID-19, providing high-quality personal protective equipment, and we’re proud they’ve selected Johnston County for this exciting expansion.”
